 Bad blood seems to exist between settlers in portions of Yavapai county, and as re- suit, terrible and fatal tragedy was enact ed week or two ago, the following account of which we take from the Flagstaff Cham pion:
 About week since several cowboys who had been in the employ of the Aztec land and cattle company, left Holbrook where the headquarters of the company are, and went south towards Tonto Basin to place called Newton's ranch. While there, they heard that an old ranchmtn named Blevin living on Canyon creek, had been missing for two or three weeks and the residents of the neighborhood suspected foul play. The boys went over to ranchman named Ora ham, and being joined by four men from that place, making eight in all, they went in search of the missing man. The next day they reached the residence of one of the Tewksbury's in Tonto Basin, and went up to the place to make some inquiries regard ing the man they were in search ef A woman came to the door and stated that none of the men were in, and after a few words had passed, the eight horsemen turn ed to leave the place. They had scarcely began to move away when a volley was fired from the windows of the house, Two men fell dead from their saddles, John Payne and R. NJ. Gillespie, and a third, G. T. Tucker, was shot through the body, the ball entering his left side. Three horses were also killed by the same volley. The men could not tell who their assailants were and. as the enemy were completely protec- ted. the remaining six of the party could do nothing but ride away out of range of the deadly weapons, leaving men and horses ou the ground. They made their way f Grahams as rapidly as they could with the wounded man Tucker, but he died before they reached the ranch.
 From information brought by man who left Grahams on Wednesday, a party had star+ad from, tbere to recover the dead bod.
